Others say yes
The ancients "deliberately" because of their love for gall wood
[簿 (yǐng) wood: nodules on trees, different tree species and different cross-sectional patterns, which is a unique natural beauty pursued by ancient literati]
Although these two statements are "one positive and one negative"
But it does not prevent the final expression of the tire twisting process
The beauty of the fusion of man-made and natural
